 By default, when you create a new site, it does not set the "registration"
 site meta key.  However, in wp-signup.php by default it assumes it to
 "all" and allows users and sites to be created (line 381):

 {{{
 // Main
 $active_signup = get_site_option( 'registration' );
 if ( !$active_signup )
         $active_signup = 'all';
 }}}

 However, in the network settings page, by default it sets it to none (line
 75):

 {{{
 if ( !get_site_option( 'registration' ) )
         update_site_option( 'registration', 'none' );
 }}}

 With the new simple flow from a standalone to multi-site installation, new
 blogs should likely have it set to none by default or it should be an
 option during set up.

 Props to leenewton for discovery.
